Las Vegas Raiders star edge rusher Maxx Crosby recently dropped a bomb on his podcast, revealing that when he tackles Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Mahomes “likes to moan.” Yeah, you read that right. Mahomes definitely does this as a joke, given that he and Crosby seem to be good friends, at least off the field, but it was a hilarious admission that’s been taken even better by fans.
Nick Wright Is Absolutely Loving This Banter
Now, while most of us are just chuckling at the locker room banter gone public, some analysts are taking it a step further. Nick Wright, arguably the biggest Chiefs and Mahomes fan out there, thinks this is way more than just two buddies having fun. Wright didn’t just stop at a laugh, he went straight to a bold prediction: “Maxx Crosby is gonna be such a great Chief one day. Can’t wait for it, to be honest. 🫡 to a great competitor,” he wrote. That’s a massive statement coming from someone so entrenched in the Chiefs kingdom. The idea isn’t totally out of left field, either. Las Vegas actually tried to trade Crosby to the Baltimore Ravens this offseason.
The Big Question: Could Crosby Really Land In Kansas City?
It would be shocking to see a $107M superstar like Crosby end up with the Chiefs anytime soon. The Raiders are actually playing some solid football, sitting at 3-1 and performing better than many gave them credit for. But here’s the kicker: anything truly can happen when the price is right. Think about it. The Chiefs have strong Super Bowl odds year after year. If a talent like Crosby ever becomes available again, it’s not impossible that Kansas City would be incredibly interested. Imagine that kind of disruption in the AFC West.
So, will we really see Maxx Crosby in Chiefs red one day? It’s a long shot right now, especially with the Raiders playing well, but as Nick Wright said, anything’s possible. Keep an eye on this space, because if a $107M talent like Crosby ever hits the market again, you know Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs will be watching.
